THE prompt dissolution of the
Reichstag by Bismarck, when it de-
feated his pet project for seven years
appropriations for military purposes,
displays a picturesque vigor and gu
dacity which is characteristic of the
man. At the same time it reveals a
courage and devotion to principle on
the part of his opponents in the
chamber which is deserving OF
the highest commentator. Many
of those who voted against
Bismarck's proposition knew that
that act signed their political death
warrant, at least for the time being,
for no political event of the future ap.
pears more certain of occurrence than
the defeat at the coming election oil

military bill. The spirit of the men
who refused to bow to the be.
nests of the dictator displays a

reimbursement which lovers of liberty

Labor Notes.

The brewers strike at Detroit has at
last been settled by the men conceding
pretty much all the employers claimed.
Several months ago the men struck against
the employment of non-union men and in
sisted on a fine being paid by the offending
firm. Several hundred men were out.
However, most of them had gone back,
and the action to-day simply amounts to
q declaration that the boycott is off and
the employers can hire their own men.
The eastern coal blockade was partially
raised on the 18th by the Delaware, Lacka-
wanna & Western Company. One hundred
men were sent to the company's docks at
Hoboken early in the morning and set to
work moving coal. They were guarded by
force ofspecial policemen and 100 Pinker-
ton men from Chicago. No attempt was
made by the strikers to interfere. Several
of the other companies will make an effort
@ resume work Immediately.

THERE is no doubt that war is
generally anticipated in Europe. No.
body seems to know why such a thing
is probable, or just where it is likely
to begin, but everybody expects it,
and extensive preparations are being
made fort by all the leading nations.
Thefact that thereisno apparent good
cause Of quarrel-no definite dispute
which might not be adjusted by sensi-
BILE and consistent diplomacy-only
serves to increase the danger and to
provoke acts which may suddenly
break the present armed truce. It is
possible, of course, that all these
preparations may turn out to be in
the interest of peace; but such situa-

WHOLESALE HOG STEALING.

Three Thousand Five Hundred Animals
Stolen at Chicago.
A case of hog stealing on q grand
scale, said to have been carried on for
the past two years, came to light at
Chicago on the Doth. It is claimed
that no less than $500 hogs have
been taken from the trains of the Chi
cago & North Western road, aggregat-
ing in value between $4,000 and
$4,000. Dennis McGurl, proprietor
of a soap factory on Western Avenue,
his son, Dennis, Jr., and five Of the
employees of the establishment, named
August Henry, Alfred King, Farrell
O'Reilly, John Regain and Thomas
Sullivan comprise the list of those
arrested. The plan of therobbers was
to board a stock train at railroad
crossing or other stopping point, and
entering one of the cars, remain there
until the train was under Roadway.
Opening the door of the Car, three or
four hogs could be thrown off in short
order, and, unobserved, the thieves
would themselves alight. The country
through which the road passes on the
western outskirts of the city is so de-
serted that the scheme was never ex~
posed until the detectives had worked
upon the case for some time. Finally
suspicion settled on McGurl and his
men. People in the neighborhood of
the factory began to suspect that the
proprietor was getting rich too fast.
McGurl had been doing a. thriving bust
ness supplying the large hotels with
great quantities of soap, which it is
now charged was made from the stolen

LOOKER-ON SHOT.

A Party of Boys Fired at by PinkertOn's
Men for Throwing Snowballs.
At 5 o'clock on the afternoon of the
Goth. while a party of boys were play
ing in an open lot odjoining the yards
of the Delaware, Lackawanna & West
ern Railroad, at Jersey City, a fracas
occurred between the boys and Pink
erton's men, and Thomas Hogan, 16
years old, looker-on, was shot and
killed by one of Pinkerton's men. The
boys were jeering at the Pinkerton
men, who were stationed in the COM
pany's yards to protect property. Oc-
casionally they rained a shower ofsnow
ballsland other missiles upon the men.
Near by crowd of strikers and their
spmpathizers were assembled, and
lent encouragement to the boys. At
length the leader of the Pinkerton men
stepped forward and ordered the boys
to stop throwing missiles at them.
The boys did not obey, and almost
Immediately three sharp cracks of g.
revolver rang out and Hogan fell dead.
The excitement was intense, and the
lookers-on fled in every direction. In
spector Lange Immediately collected a
number of witnesses OF the shooting
and marched the Pinkerton men out
in line. He then ordered the wit.
nesses to identity the man who shot.
They at once selected Patrick Sheehy,
Daniel Oahill and Samuel A. Neff from
the line and identified them as the
three men who fired at the boys. The
Inspector examined their revolvers
and found every chamber loaded.
The men were taken to police head
quarters and held. About 9 O'Clock
the police arrested Murphy Moriarity,
one of Pinkerton's men, as another OF
the shooters. One of his eyes was hor-
ribly discolored and swollen where he
had been struck with a. SNOWFALL. An
other of Pinkerton's men had q tooth
knocked out by SNOWFALL. The ball
that struck Hogan pierced his brain
directly above the right eye.

a Gvmnastic Feat

Shortly after 1 O'Clock on the M orning OF
the 10th, fire broke out in an apartment
house at Sixth Avenue and Twenty sixth
Street, New York. The janitor, Rheinhold
Siemann, was awakened by the smoke and
found all means of escape cut off, except
by the window of his room, which was on
the fourth story. He stepped out on the
coping, and seizing the shutter of the next
window, swung himself over and did the
same with the next and the next until he
reached the Sixth Avenue corner, where q
ladder had been raised. But it was too
short and the flames were bursting out all
around him. With extraordinary GOODNESS
and agility he quickly lowered himself from
one shutter to another until he reached the
ladder and descended to the street.

THE electoral-count bill, as agreed
upon by the conference committee and
passed by the House, leaves the whole
matter of presidential election returns
practically in the control of the Estates,
with a provision to the effect that in
case two sets of returns shall be
presented from any state the vote of
such state shall not be counted. This
is probably as good a plan as could
be devised for protecting the country
against the perils incident to close
elections, which on at least one occa-
sion have assumed a very grave and
alarming aspect.

The care of small children is great
responsibility under any circum,
stances, but when they chance 60 be
sovereigns and princes, heads of the
state and defenders of the faith, the
charge becomes doubly grave. In
Spain the statesmen are chiefly con-
cerned nowadays in hunting up lost
children and in looking out for kid
napers. Schemes to abduct the baby
king are numerous, and even the In
fanta, his little sister, cannot d;sap-
pear for an hour without causing q
national panic. This reduction of
politics of a country to the level of a
nursery is not unusual, however, in
nations where only men are interested.

that the courts are unable to keep up
